    Default EV Calc's off on certain hands

    I was looking through my negative Allin EV hands and found some hands that were way off. I had updated to the new beta 28b and then imported my hands from PS to check my EV because the hands in my desktop database were showing that I was significantly above EV. I give you the hands to look at or whatever you need.

    If you need me to convert them or do something special to retrieve them from my database let me know. All of the hands are showing -EV

    Yes those are my results but I guess I am missunderstanding them. When they report -13.11 does that not decrease my EV and in effect saying I got lucky on this hand? I would imagine for these hands the EV should be 0 because the outcome was the correct EV outcome? I guess I dont understand.

    Ok, I understand.

    No, in fact, it would be 0 only if your opponent was drawing dead (0 outs). But if you take the first hands for example, when you go all in, you were a 74.9% favorite. The correct outcome is to win 74.9% and to lose 25.1%. Of course, in a real hand you are generally either 0% or 100% (sometimes 50% when there is a split). In this case, you are 100% because you win. Thus the EV diff shows you that you have won 13.11$ in excess in the 27.35$ profit (54.70$ pot), that's the equity of your opponent.

    Understand?

    In fact, when you win a pot where you are the favorite but you opponent is not drawing dead, you are also "lucky" when you win it, even if you are the favorite. Because, you opponent has also a little equity.

    Ah I see. Was not thinking of it that way. So if I understand you correctly the EV$ Diff is meerly the diffrence between the expected outcome over the long run and the actual outcome. It all seems so simple now.

    Yah I was misinterpretting the EV as well. I was, for some reason, thinking it was saying I was getting it in bad and wasnt thinking about it being the actual EV diffrence between the hands. (no clue why considering it said EV DIFF Thanks again!
